Israeli troops have completed their withdrawal from al-Shifa hospital in Gaza City, marking the end of a two-week raid that has drawn international attention. The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) initiated the operation with claims of Hamas using the medical facility as a base for launching attacks. During the raid, the IDF reported the elimination of terrorists, the discovery of numerous weapons, and the acquisition of intelligence documents within the hospital's premises. Witnesses and Palestinian residents have described the aftermath of the siege, noting significant destruction to Gaza's largest hospital, a critical healthcare facility for the region. The withdrawal comes amid growing concerns over the humanitarian impact of military operations in densely populated areas. The IDF's actions at al-Shifa hospital have sparked debates on the complexities of urban warfare and the challenges of balancing military objectives with the need to protect civilian infrastructure and lives. As the dust settles, the international community watches closely, calling for accountability and a renewed focus on diplomatic solutions to the long-standing conflict.
